    I consider myself loyal but objective, if my guy loses, i wont jump ship like some. I have no problem picking guys to beat the guy im supporting either.

    for example I have no doubt Haye will get KO'd, the question what acheivements can he rwch before it happens.

    Well I was a Patterson fan since Moore....and disliked Clay since Moore fell in 4 when he should have gave Moore more respect and done it in 2 or 3.

    As long as my man shows up fit and does his best I'm sill for him. Should he show up fat he loses my support.

    What's really good sometimes is undercard fights, where both are unknown to you and you can watch a fight with out rose colored glasses on.

    I suppose I'm both like in the case of Arturo Gatti I'm as loyal as you can be and then there are people like Gamboa who I love watching and will support until his cockiness gets him KO'd

    Well im a Shane fan but im also a boxing fan. Ive boxed and I watch enough of it I know whats going on. Shane didnt look special agianst Mayorga but to me he looked no worse really then he did vs Cotto/Collazo/Vargas. Shane just fought at guy who came in as a Light Heavyweight and didnt really come to box fairly Mayorga was always clinching or crying foul or hitting on the break. Whenever Mayorga wasnt using dirty tactics Shane was battering him with his right hands. Mosley vs Margarito would not be that way Margarito comes to fight it would be for the most part a clean fight. Mosley still has alot more speed then Margarito so that gives him a good advantage. A thing he has going for him is his toughness,his stamina and his will hes very hard to break down Margarito could get close but Shane will just keep throwing back hard. Im not saying Mosley blows him out or anything I just see this having close decision wrote all over it.

    I'm a fan of Cotto, i'm not loyal to him because I never believed he was "all that" ... I always thought that he was a KO waiting to happen and you seen what happen against Margarito. Despite me having him favored in the fight - I wasn't as surprised I thought I would be that Cotto lost.

    I consider myself a fan of Cotto because I have several Cotto fights on tape and the few times that he was on PPV, I used my hard earned dollars to order them.

    Depends who you're talking about.

    I'm a die hard Ricky Hatton fan, Kelly Pavlik fan, Winky Wright, RJJ....

    But for example- Cotto/Margarito I liked them both, but margarito a little more. Taylor-Pavlik was the same way- I like Jermaine, but wanted to see Kellly win.

    Depends who's fighting..

    The only boxer I think is a sure thing every time is PBF ... other than him - other fighters out here aren't even close ... they're 50/50 each time.

    But even if you're not a fan of PBF .... you still expect him to win by UD.
